Cherry Point, NC (On-Site/Office)
Description: This technician independently plans and accomplishes complete projects or studies of broad
scope and complexity, or serves as an expert in a narrow aspect of a particular field of engineering, e.g.,
environmental factors affecting electronic engineering. Complexity of assignments typically requires
considerable creativity and judgment to devise approaches to accomplish work, resolve design and
operational problems and make decisions in situations where standard engineering methods, procedures and
techniques may not be applicable. Supervisor or professional engineer provides advice on unusual or
controversial problems or policy matters. Completed work is reviewed for compliance with overall project
objectives. This worker may supervise or train and be assisted by lower level technicians and performs, one
or a combination of the following:
1. Prepares designs and specifications for various complex equipment or systems (e.g., a heating system
in an office building, or new electronic components such as solid state devices for instrumentation
equipment).
2. Plans approach to solve design problems; conceives and recommends new design techniques; resolves
design problems with contract personnel and assures compatibility of design with other parts of the system.
3. Designs and coordinates test set-ups and experiments to prove or disprove the feasibility of preliminary
design; uses untried and untested measurement techniques; and improves the performance of the
equipment. May advise equipment users on redesign to solve unique operational deficiencies.
4. Plans approach and conducts various experiments to develop equipment or systems characterized by
(a) difficult performance requirements because of conflicting attributes such as versatility, size and ease of
operation; or (b) unusual combination of techniques or components. Arranges for fabrication of pilot
models and determines test procedures and design of special test equipment.
Education: Position requires an AS or AA degree from an accredited college or university in a related
engineering/scientific field. ALLOWABLE SUBSTITUTION: A High School diploma or General
Educational Development (GED) credential and two (2) years of recent and relevant technical experience
related to the labor category "Description" may be substituted for an AS or AA degree. These two (2)
years of experience are in addition to the required minimum of fourteen (14) years to meet the
"Experience" requirements below, therefore, requiring a total of sixteen (16) years of experience.
Experience: At least fourteen (14) years of recent and relevant experience in a position related to the labor
category "Description". Eight (8) years of experience, to include: installation of such equipment. Four (4)
years of experience, to include: design, preparation and modification of engineering documents and
drawings is required. Experience may be concurrent.
This position will directly support the H1 FST.
Benefits:
Medical, Dental, & Vision Plan, short- and long-term disability, accidental death & dismemberment, 401K retirement & matching, Tuition assistance program, direct deposit, leave package and 11 paid federal holidays.
Salary:
The projected salary range for this position is $120,000-$140,000; however, this is not a guarantee of salary. Salary will be set based on experience and contractual requirements.
